Default Junk Yard Gold

this morning i went to the local junk yard. its one where you pull ur own parts. pretty much the only one i go to.

i was just looking for an L27 LIM for porting practice. which i did get.

upon further roaming i stumble on an 92 ssei. in the 4-5 years ive been going there, i have never seen a turbo or supercharger. so i was pessimistic, but i opened the hood anyway. and i was happy to find the car completely untouched. so i got it.

the best part is the price. for both the L27 and the L67, i got tb, all sensors, fuel rails and injectors and upper intake. and also a trans mount. all for under $53. how can you beat that? you cant. i love that JY.

If I had that collections, I'd be sleeping on the floor with them

Nice score though.

The one in the 95 was broken, and just sort of floating around inside the arm rest. Took me forever to figure out how it was supposed to go.
